Shubhankar Ray on the Leica D-Lux 6 ‘EDITION BY G-STAR RAW’

At first a seemingly off-beat collaboration, the worlds of rugged denim and luxury cameras have come together thanks to the newly-unveiled Leica D-Lux 6 ‘EDITION BY G-STAR RAW.’ As G-Star Global Brand Director Shubhankar Ray explains, shared values of both functionality and durability were ultimately the driving force behind the new special edition release. Thus, the collaboration comes outfitted with a distinctly military-inspired look as the olive drab camera is covered in a dotted grip and is paired with a full-grain leather carrying case and strap. Take a closer look at the design above, which is now available in limited quantities at Leica stores and select boutiques across the globe.
